bill bissett - Awake In Th Red Desert (Canadian Psych Concrete Poetry 1967)
This is one of the most out there Canadian records of the late 60s. bill bissett is a one of the first concrete poets from the 60s who to this day is still writing and performing. In the late 60s he lived in Vancouver Canada and made these far out recordings with friends jamming in the background over top of his poety. There are also some tracks that where done with the help of a Buchla System 100 Synthesizer. The first Modular System made by the man who created the surround sound system at Kesey's trip festival in the late 60s. It was a age where electronic where being freed into the musical cosmos and experiments with poety and music where being done by people and not just academics...
